[QUOTE="Fortkentdad, post: 432798, member: 24285"] No idea. The Camlight says it produces up to 600L of 5600K which I believe is the colour of the light. Intensity can be dialed up to 600. The SB-700's spec on colour took a little more google effort. Best answer: "[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Helvetica Neue]Somewhere in the range of 5400 to 6000°. If you leave your WB set to auto, the flash will tell the camera the appropriate color temperature to use. Your manual explains this. [/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=#000000][FONT=Helvetica Neue]If you want to do some artsy stuff, you can change the WB to make things warmer or cooler." [/FONT][/COLOR]A quicker answer on the Metz where I found a site that claimed the 58 AF-2 delivers "[COLOR=#545454][FONT=arial]light at a daylight neutral 5600k [/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=#545454][FONT=arial][B]colour temperature" [/B][/FONT][/COLOR]So I think all is good. IF I were to bounce the one flash off of the golden side of the reflector then of course that is a drastic change in the colour of that light. Curious why the need to be comparable - I'm thinking a contrasting gold background glow could be interesting. Must experiment with this before the shoot and decide whether to bounce that background hare light or just shoot straight. [/QUOTE]
